MONTREAL, Dec. 80, 1885.
DEAR Mr.. CHESTER.
In regard to your Cure, can say that
I think it an excellent preparation. l
have used it and have come much In
contact with its use. The best estimate
Of its intrinsic worth is to be drawn
from the fact that the sales increase
steadily with little or no advertising.
One person recommends it to another,
and its sale is based, in my opinion,
more upon It's worth as remedy than
upon the results Of public advertising
done in the past. Yours truly,
HENRY MILES.

the fatal action of the disease. The case
OF Grants lingering disease and death from

uniform facts, but il is not. The cancer
was as much disease ot the nervous as
of the muscular tissues, and 1t was certsin
from its Inception of fatal termination.

guards seized their rifles and the

the entire force in that department struck.
At noon they were followed by 400 men
from the box factory and 400 girls in the

Donkey parties are tne latest thing in
the way of social gathering in Milwau-
kee. a Urge silhoutte representing
taIIless donkey is cut out OF paper or
cloth and fastened upon the wall. To
each of the guests are given cambria
tail and Il pin. Then they are blind
folded, one by one, placed in corner op-
posite the donkey, are whirled there
times around, and then started on blind
search for the donkey, " on which, if
they reach it, the tail is to be pinned. If
the guest goes in another direction and
stumbles against wnll, door, chair or
anything else, there he must leave the
tail. The movements of the blindfoded
are apt to be ludicrous. The person who
makes the best effort to place the tail
upon the donkey where it belongs receives
a present Of some kind, while the guest
who makes the most unsuccessful effort
gets the BOBBY prize.
